Descrição

Role: Automotive (Vehicle) Technical Program Manager (TPM)

Location: Betim, Minas Gerais, Brazil (Onsite)

Type of Hire: Full Time

Start Date: Immediate

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:

• Bachelor's degree in computer science or a related field.

• 10+ years of working directly with engineering teams experience.

• 7+ years of technical product or program management experience.

• 5+ years of software development experience.

• 5+ years of technical program management working directly with software engineering teams experience.

TPM Roles and Responsibilities:

Principal Technical Program Management (Typically 10+ years of experience)

• Hands on experience managing end to vehicle product development life cycle (hardware & software).

• Own planning and delivery of software built on the vehicle.

• Domain expert on the vehicle architecture. Dive deep to solve highly technical and complex strategic problems, get involved in design and architectural decision-making, and provide data-driven recommendations to improve the design and architecture.

• Understands system limitations, scaling factors, boundary conditions, and/or the reasons for architectural decisions (Q. Why did we build X in this way? What business assumptions were made? What technical assumptions were made? Do we need to build something else– if so why?).

• Knows how to decouple dependencies (e.g., SOA best practices), prevents duplicate efforts and collisions/outages,

• Has technical judgment; uses it to inform technology and business trade-offs.

• Capable of holding an engineering team to a high standard for both solutions and engineering practices (similar to a senior engineer or technical manager).

• Knows how to make sure engineering teams are focused on the right solutions for the customer and organization. Understands the consequences of short-term solutions and impact on long-term architecture.

• Able to simplify concurrent project delivery, including development and testing processes for projects that cross team boundaries.

• Has deep knowledge of core system technology in program domain and/or broad understanding of company systems/technologies. Applies this technical knowledge to invent, evolve, improve, simplify, etc.

• Knows how to drive large-scale engineering efforts that solve significantly complex or endemic problems.

• Able to identify gaps/opportunities within or between countries, architectures, and organizations (e.g., services, workflows, tooling) to satisfy the needs of program/product customers.

• Understands how to decompose complex processes into straight-forward solutions, often inventing new ones.

• Consistently brings strong, data-driven business and technical judgment to decisions.

• Recognizes when designs/solutions require additional technical guidance (e.g., from senior engineers or subject matter experts).

• Able to make the case for technology programs. Influences teams to dedicate resources and leads the effort (or finds appropriate owner).

• Knows how to reduce coupling between teams. Looks at where we apply the same TPM or engineering effort year-over-year to determine what requires us to exert that effort multiple times. Can drive architecture or organization changes that enable engineering teams to work independently and/or achieve a significant efficiency improvement.
